I got a call from an automated message saying there was some unusual activity on my bank card. They told me to press one if I wanted to cancel the transaction.

Yesterday, I got a call from a number I didn't recognise, so I decided to ring it back today. Once the call went through, I heard this weird tune going down in pitch, then it switched to the usual ringback sound you get when waiting for someone to pick up. I didn’t say anything and hung up. I’m not sure if it was some kind of automated system or something a bit dodgy, but it definitely made me think of those phone scams and the latest AI voice tech. These days, AI can clone voices from just recordings, which means scammers might pretend to be your relatives and try to con you out of money. I doubt they caught any recording from me since I kept quiet, but it’s a good reminder to be careful with unknown calls and never hand over personal or financial details.

Only heard a single ringtone, most likely some scammer's automated call.

I tried calling Joe Swanson but no luck, no answer at all. Honestly, I wouldn’t bother ringing back, it feels like a total scam.

Got a call supposedly from EE saying my SIM was about to be disabled. They wanted me to confirm my email and other personal info. I called them out for being scammers, but I kinda played along just to see what they’d say next. After a bit, the bloke got rude and started shouting. First, he told me I had 24 hours before they’d shut off my SIM, then switched it up saying it'd happen in an hour. When I warned I'd report them to the ombudsman and Action Fraud if they kept phoning, he just hung up on me.

Got a call from someone claiming to be with EE, said they could cut my bill by 45%. When they wanted me to verify my email, I just ended the call. Definitely a scam in my book...

I picked up and as soon as I said hello, they just ended the call straight away.

my samsung phone’s spam filter just blocked this number right away without me having to do anything

She’s a lovely girl and seems like she could actually be quite helpful.

Nah, she isn’t, and honestly, she’s a right dodgy person who cheats on you and messes with your phone for a laugh.

My phone just buzzed but I chose not to pick up. They didn’t bother leaving any voicemail. Pretty sure it’s just a scam call.

They keep ringing for someone called Phillip, even though I've already told them they've got the wrong number.

Got a call from a guy with an Indian accent, said he was from EE or something, I’m not sure. I told him I’m not interested and quickly put the phone down. Feels like this is just plain harassment! Avoid EE calls if you can.

There was a call from 07985257794 that I didn’t answer ’cause I didn’t know the number, so I just blocked it straight away.

I got a call from someone I didn’t recognise but they never left a voicemail, so I didn’t bother calling back.

I got a missed call from this number, didn’t pick up, and then they sent me a text about some kind of opportunity.

Got a text from SantanderGB saying there was an issue with my ‘Vlrgin Ioans’ payment of £449.97 being held up. It asked me to ring 02080585970 if I didn’t make that payment. That number looks really dodgy to me.

Been gettin loads of calls from different mobiles on my landline recently, no one ever leaves a message. Feels like a dodgy scam or just a nuisance. I've gone ahead and blocked them all now.

They called but hung up pretty quick before I could pick up. Didn’t leave me any voicemail either. When I tried ringing them back, it just went straight to voicemail.

Been getting a bunch of mobile calls on my landline recently. I never pick up as they never leave a voicemail, so I reckon it's just those annoying cold call scams. Ended up blocking them all now.

Got a call from a number claiming to be Nationwide saying they’d set up a direct debit on my bank account. They told me to call back if there were any problems. Definitely a scam.

Looks like a scam to me. I didn't pick up since I had no clue who it was.

I’ve been getting calls from this number all the time, it’s really starting to annoy me. Feels like proper harassment.

Got a call pretending to be from immigration, total scam.

No idea who this caller is, it's a total mystery to me. Seriously, can it get any more frustrating? 🤬
